Kindle doesn't work with epub which is what majority of ebooks are
It does work with epub now. They changed it not long ago (afaik)
Can confirm it works now (not sure when change happened; pretty sure I’ve been using since early 2022). I regularly use epub on kindle.
They did recently drop mobi (or at least threaten to - they send me an email saying they are going to drop mobi capability after I send one to my kindle).
Kindle supported file types: • .EPUB • .PDF • .RTF • .DOC, .DOCX • .HTML, .HTM • .JPG, .JPEG, .GIF, .PNG, .BMP

I email ePubs to my kindle, I'm told Amazon automatically converts them, I've had 0 issues.
But calibre can convert them anyway.
I always find you with that iconic user name around the Fediverse!
Join me in the emoji shit post club!
Also I just realized my username looks extremely different on desktop vs mobile lmao. I just see the Android version.
Really? How different?

You can convert them to azw3 with calibre. It's what I do.
